Our veneration of Resolution 181 is one form of this. But it is even more egregious in the language we deploy. When we use the term “pro-Israel,” we accept the notion that Israel’s right to exist is still under consideration. When we call ourselves “unapologetic Zionists,” we suggest that the default option is to ask forgiveness for being Zionists. When we use the term “anti-Israel,” we permit our foes to say, “We don’t hate Jews, just Israel.”
This is a struggle of our own making. Judea Pearl reminded me, “We are a grateful people. We say modeh ani every morning. We say thank you for waking up.” What is wrong, Pearl asked me, with the desire to display our gratitude? Is it not noble?
There is nothing wrong with being grateful. But when the existence of the Jewish state is being called into question by everyone from the United Nations to Amnesty International, Students for Justice in Palestine and universities that have become hotbeds of anti-Zionism, excessive gratitude can easily slip into the Jewish desire for acceptance and recognition from non-Jews.
I dream of a time when the Jew stands with his head held high and declares, “We are, therefore we are.” We have another powerful word for this: hinenu. We are here.
Die Palästinenser kämpfen immer noch den Krieg von 1947-1949 gegen den jüdischen Staat. Und verlieren wieder.

First One Through, 25. September 2022 Der Präsident der palästinensischen Autonomiebehörde verfehlt es immer beim jährlichen Forum der UNO-Vollversammlung zu beeindrucken. Dieses Jahr übertraf er sich auf spektakuläre Weise, indem er vorführte, warum es auf absehbare Zeit keine Chance auf Frieden gibt. Die 48 Minuten Geschwafel waren von Anfang bis Ende eine Blamage. Es lohnt sich nicht die…

Die UNO-Untersuchungskommission sagt, Israels Rechtsgrundlage sei Resolution 181. Das stimmt nun mal gar nicht.

Aber sie lügen aus einem israelfeindlichen Grund Elder of Ziyon, 5. August 2022 UNO-Ermittler Miloon Kothari gab eine halbherzige, offensichtlich unaufrichtige Entschuldigung für seine Äußerungen von vor über einer Woche ab, die „jüdische Lobby“ kontrolliere die sozialen Medien und die Legalität Israels stehe insgesamt in Frage; er sagte: „Ich würde so weit gehen die Frage aufzuwerfen, warum…

Seventy-two years ago today the United Nations passed Resolution 181 (embedded below) which called for the partition of British-ruled Palestine into a Jewish state and an Arab state (back then Jews living in the Holy Land were called Palestinians). It was approved on November 29, 1947, with 33 votes in favor, 13 against, 10 abstentions and one absent (see the end of the post for who voted what). Israel created
Even France voted in favor of the partition plan which may have been the last time France voted in favor of Israel at the UN. And in what started a pattern that continues for Middle East votes today Great Britain didn’t have the guts to take a stand (they abstained).

Stimmt es, dass die UNO Israel schuf? Siebzig Jahre nach der Resolution 181 der UNO-Vollversammlung
Dore Gold, Inistitute for Contemporary Affairs, 21. November 2017 [yourube=“https://youtu.be/dKxY2mdFodM“] Wir nähern uns jetzt dem 70. Jahrestag der Resolution 181 der UNO-Vollversammlung, die auch als Teilungsplan bekannt ist, die am 29. November 1947 beschlossen wurde.

John Kerry, Those “Illegal” Settlements, That “Two-State Solution” (Part II)
After the Six-Day War, while the Israelis waited for the Arabs to make that phone call about peace negotiations that never came, the Arabs had other ideas. First, they announced at a meeting in the Sudanese capital of the Arab League “the three No’s of Khartoum”: No peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, and no negotiations with Israel. Who and what – before a single “settlement” was…
